Smaller companies are mostly hosted on the "cloud." Hell even bigger ones like Netflix are.
They don't need to cooperate. All their data is already there at the data center. Only the cloud provider needs to cooperate. So the question really to ask is: is Amazon, Linode, Digital Ocean, RackSpace, etc. cooperating?

- api 13y agoIf it's owned by a U.S. company or if the country in question has intel-sharing agreements with the U.S., that won't help you. Also if the data is coming in or going out to a foreign server, it falls under the "foreign intelligence" umbrella so it better be encrypted.
- wslh 13y agoYes, that's why it's difficult to find one! If you have any recommendation... I use encryption for sensitive information but I want to also minimize the probability of interception and storage of my messages for unencrypted ones.
